Count Pulaski's poodle, Masterpiece.

In the 1960's, the poodle was the most popular dog in the country.  The poodle's rise to fame in America is due in large part to one man, and one dog.  The story of Count Pulaski and what happened to his  Masterpiece are the subject of this week's Criminal podcast.

Criminal is recorded at WUNC.
